Bill,

Just interested to know why you were shorting bean oil.  I've been
long in the BO7Z for two months now and doing OK. I don't see any
change in the upward momentum. For the Dec. contract there is good
support at the 2370 area and next stop somewhere around 2600. Might
be a few bumps along the way but keep your stops loose and you can
hang in there. It's time to start looking at March since the
resistance was taken out today (2420). Should be clear sailing to
around 2580.
